My third room belonged to audio importer Motet and Winnipeg-based retailer AltitudoAudio. The gear in this room was more modestly priced than in previous rooms, but it delivered the musical goods.

At the heart of the system was an Auris Fortissimo integrated amplifier ($15,000). Source duties went to an Earmen DAC ($800) and streamer ($1500), a brand you may not have heard of because it won’t be sold to end-users for another month or so. But let me say this: from what I heard in this room, and in another room I’ll get to soon, Earmen is a brand to watch.

The system was centered, alternately, around the front-ported, floorstanding Triangle Megellan Cello speakers ($18,000) and the front-ported, standmount Triangle Signature Thetas. While the smaller standmounts did’t deliver the weight, warmth, or corporeality of the bigger Triangles, I was unprepared for the fully realized world they constructed, seemingly fully independent of the room. In conjunction with the gear upstream, these speakers also produced grain-free, fluid, and effortless sound. The system was wired with Analog Acoustics.
